Dr. Korbel < !signature-->This secret, this bottle, easy comfort this buddy, this pal, this painful need. Dr. Korbel fires me up, washes smooth grief’s masker, potent medicine indeed. A round table with red tablecloth dim light doesn't even cover the top. Drunk and playing cards, for tomorrow pretending pain is over, bleeding stopped. Comfort in the knowing once upon, we shall be again. On that distant, glorious morning sure gonna be good to see my friend. For now, we have my brandy smoked bottle with forgetfulness inside. The days are easier to face with Dr. Korbel keeps me from evil, revenge has died. Round table in room with blue tile playing cards, drinkin, and swearin some. Pretending continues, prescribed for pain a deep dark secret that has come undone. Comfort in the knowing once upon, we shall be again. On that distant, glorious morning sure gonna be good to see my friend. 9/96 bleeding... "Tis ink coming from his arm, Captain!" [This message has been edited by bleeding (edited 07-10-2000).] |

i thought in the spirit of fairness, that i ought to post this "rewrite" of the piece that directly followed the creation of "Never Ending Love". Some folks thought it was courage that kept me together during that time, actually it was brandy 24/7. A more deceptive or degenerate prescription I have rarely encountered in my carrer as a self-medicator... bleeding... "Tis ink coming from his arm, Captain!" |

Very painful, Daniel. It does take courage to be so brutally honest about ourselves. I admire that in a person. Denise |

I agree with denise...painful...yet u emerge stronger...pretense...something most of us turn to when unable to face the loss *S* If there cannot be equal in affection, then let the one with more be me - midnightblues™ |
